After eating lunch, Qin Yu sent the madame back to the villa to rest. After that, he was called by the Assistant Yao to the company, leaving Lin Xi to accompany the old man at home.

As for Old Madem Qin, she was going to fall asleep in her room during the afternoon. Lin Xi did not know when she would wake up, so she could only watch TV in the living room.

The news about her and the Lin's was also broadcasted on TV.

Due to her father being unconscious all this time, the Lin's was now managed by Lin Qian. However, because of her identity as her stepdaughter, she was not able to convince the masses in the company.

But Lin Qian's methods were unyielding, and towards those employees that she could not win over, she started to cut their jobs. As a result, the Lin's was in a mess as her stock dropped another two percentage points.

And because of the rumours about his wife and sister who had cheated, Qiao Mingyu had more or less been affected.

It was unknown if it was because the water army that Liao Feng bought was more impressive, but in a situation where there was no conclusive evidence, public opinion actually started to tilt, inclined to think that Qiao Mingyu had truly cheated.

However, this was far from enough for Lin Xi. What she wanted was not only a victory in public opinion, but also the punishment Qiao Mingyu and Lin Qian should receive …

Old Madem Qin slept through the night. Just as Lin Xi was hesitating on whether or not she should call the hotel to order dishes, she opened the door full of energy. Without saying anything further, she rolled up her sleeves and entered the kitchen.

Lin Xi did not know a thing about cooking. Originally, she had volunteered to help the old lady, but after almost cutting off her finger, she was chased out of the kitchen.

Very soon, fragrant chicken wire porridge with a rich aroma and a few homemade dishes were served. Qin Yu seemed to have calculated the time well and just happened to return home at this time.

The three of them sat around the dining table. Qin Yu and Lin Xi continued to pretend to be a loving couple as they ate the daily meals cooked by the old mistress. Listening to the old mistress talk about some trivial matters and interesting stories from abroad, the atmosphere was warm and harmonious, as if they were truly a family.

When she was reborn, after Lin Xi decided to be an actress, she had a falling out with her father and rarely went back to the Lin Family. It had also been a long time since she had felt at home, even though it was just a fake.

Lin Xi was in a daze, when she suddenly heard the Old Mistress ask her: "Xiao Xi has also graduated, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Lin Xi regained her senses, thought for a while and said: "I like acting, I want to be an actor."

Although she had first entered the entertainment circle for Qiao Mingyu, in the past two years, she had already fallen in love with acting. Of course, there was another reason why she wanted to be an actress — she could earn money quickly.

She was no longer a daughter of the Lin Clan, and she did not want to rely on anyone else. She needed to earn money to support herself.

"An actor?" Old Madem Qin frowned, "I heard that the entertainment circle is a mess. Not long ago, there was an actor called Lin Xi who jumped down from the fifth floor due to drugs, right?"

"She's not on drugs!" The two voices spoke in unison.

Lin Xi and Qin Yu looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

Lin Xi defended herself: "Lin Xi was set up by someone, she did not take drugs, and did not commit suicide!"

Old Madem Qin made her feel at home, so she didn't want the Old Granny to misunderstand her.

The old lady was startled, her face was a little startled, as if she didn't understand why Lin Xi suddenly became so agitated, but she quickly smiled gently: "I believe you, it was Grandma who heard the rumors, and did not understand the truth. I shouldn't have been prejudiced against actors. Since you like acting, then grandma will support you with respect. "

The old lady's tone was very sincere, she did not have any intention to lie to Lin Xi, and asked Qin Yu, "Isn't there an economic company under the Qin’s? It's great that I can sign on Xiao Xi, so I should at least be a bit more at ease in my own company. Then, I can find a good manager so that no one will bully her. "

Lin Xi looked at the old lady who was helping her with her work, and suddenly felt his eyes burning up.

After experiencing the betrayal of her loved ones and loved ones, she treasured the slightest bit of care from others. Furthermore, she could feel that the madame truly treated her well.

But even though she wanted to be an actress, she had never thought of relying on Qin Yu to stand up for her. After all, the love between her and Qin Yu was fake, and Qin Yu might even hate her a little.

But unexpectedly, Qin Yu actually agreed to the Old Mistress' request, "It just so happens that VICI has to recruit a spokesperson recently.

Based on the position that Lin Xi took before she was reborn, it would be difficult for him to get a endorsement from the VICI. But now, Qin Yu was actually willing to give her this chance!

Lin Xi was unable to figure out what Qin Yu was thinking, she looked towards Qin Yu, but Qin Yu's face was still cold and indifferent, her expression could not be seen.

"Thank you." Lin Xi whispered.

Although she didn't plan to hug Qin Yu's thighs, she also didn't try to refuse.

She was not in a good situation. Her father was still lying in the hospital waiting for her. She did not have time to be sentimental. No matter why Qin Yu wanted to help her, she needed this chance right now.

She wanted to become famous, earn more money, and have more influence. That way, her revenge would be easier.

When Old Madem Qin heard her thanks, her face was unhappy. "Child, why do you look so foreign? We're all one family. "

A family …

Lin Xi thought back to these words, and laughed from the bottom of her heart for the first time since her rebirth.

After dinner, she would help Old Madem Qin clean up the dishes.

Because Qin Yu did not like being disturbed by others, the nanny in the villa would only clean the house at a fixed time.

But when Lin Xi just entered the kitchen, she was already rushing over by the old lady: "I'll clean up by myself, I've been sleeping the entire afternoon and am currently full of energy, but for you, rest early with Qin Yu."

Although Old Madem Qin was a wife of a noble family, she did not put on any airs.

Seeing that she was unable to help, Lin Xi could only obediently go back to her room and wash up.

Just as she finished showering and was about to go to bed early, Old Madem Qin suddenly knocked on her door.

"Did you quarrel with Qin Yu?" the madame asked her.

Lin Xi inexplicably shook her head, because of the old lady's presence at home. Not only did Qin Yu not target her again, she even showed mercy to her, and the two of them never quarreled.

The old lady then asked: "Then why did you suddenly sleep in another room with Qin Yu?"

Lin Xi finally understood the old lady's meaning. The old lady thought that Qin Yu and she had always been sharing a bed and a pillow.

Lin Xi stuttered as she explained, "Um, aren't the two of us not married yet? It's not good to be too close … We always sleep in separate rooms. "

"Stop lying to me, you two must be fighting." The Old Mistress sighed and said, "You two were so intimate during the day, and you still said that Qin Yu would make the bed for you when you were sleeping. How could you sleep in a separate room? Tell Grandma, did Qin Yu bully you? Mother will help you. "

The old lady talked while pulling Lin Xi to walk towards Qin Yu's bedroom to seek justice for her.

Lin Xi was afraid that she was too old, so she didn't dare to struggle free and could only weakly explain as she walked: "Grandma, no, we really didn't argue."

The Old Granny continued to pull Lin Xi to the front of Qin Yu's door before she stopped and said, "If you really don't want Grandmother to meddle in your affairs, then you should go in and settle it yourself. But you should not split up into rooms the moment a quarrel breaks out.

After he finished speaking, he pushed them into Qin Yu's room and closed the door for them.

Before Lin Xi could react, when she raised her head, she realized that she had accidentally bumped into another pretty boy.

Well, naked again.

"Have you seen enough?" Qin Yu frowned slightly as he put on a nightgown to cover himself, blocking Lin Xi's line of sight.

Lin Xi then opened her eyes in embarrassment and explained: "Grandma told me to come in."

Qin Yu did not pursue the matter any further. He had already heard the commotion outside and was about to change his clothes, but he was still a step too late. Lin Xi had already barged in.

"Then you can make a bed tonight." Qin Yu slowly tied up his pajamas, then took out a blanket from the cupboard and tossed it to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi looked at the thin blanket in her hand, then looked at Qin Yu's bed and said unhappily: Why do you want me to make a bed for you? I still play the role of your beloved fiancée, so the bed should be left for me to sleep on. "

"Grandma wouldn't come into the room." Qin Yu said.

His gentleness and consideration could only be found in front of the old lady, but facing Lin Xi alone, he returned to his usual apathy: "You and I will pretend to be lovers, I agree to one of your requests, this is the promised reward, it does not include the fact that you are sleeping on my bed."

As expected of a merchant, he knows his place.

Lin Xi angrily snorted: "Then why did you kiss me today? When I pretended to be a couple, I didn't say that I wanted to kiss! "

Qin Yu suddenly stopped moving and leaned closer to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi only felt the space in front of him darken, following that, a face with deep features came over, the nose of the face was so high that it almost touched the tip of Lin Xi's nose. The other party's breath caressed her cheeks. Lin Xi felt as if her skin was on fire and she couldn't help but avoid her.

Qin Yu sneered, then went closer to her and said: "If you're not satisfied, you can kiss me back."

He was being toyed with again!

Lin Xi looked at the evil grin on Qin Yu's face, then suddenly tiptoed and hugged his neck, and unhesitatingly kissed his lips.

Don't think that she wouldn't dare to!

In any case, the target of the kiss was the handsome and rich Master Qin San. She wasn't at a disadvantage.

Lin Xi kissed her provocatively, but Qin Yu refused to show any weakness and quickly seized back the initiative.

It was originally a kiss filled with the smell of gunpowder, but the atmosphere gradually changed as they kissed in an amiable manner.

Qin Yu suddenly pushed Lin Xi away. He ruffled the hair on his forehead in frustration and entered the small study on the other side of the bedroom with a cold expression without saying a word.

It was a small study, but a cubicle separated from the bedroom by bookshelves, with only a desk and a couch.

Qin Yu entered the small study room and didn't make any other movements.

Lin Xi lied on the bed and blankly touched her lips that were still burning hot.

She had just taken the initiative to kiss Qin Yu, and had even kissed him on the bed!

Lin Xi turned her body, and buried her head under the blanket with a blush.

When did he become so unruly? He had just fought with Qiao Mingyu a few days ago, and he had fallen for another man so quickly?

Lin Xi fell into a deep state of self-doubt, to the point that she forgot about the inexplicable sense of familiarity she had felt when she was carried by Qin Yu.
